The media's portrayal of Israel's foreign influence as equivalent to Jewish people's concerns reinforces antisemitic tropes.

"It is antisemitic to treat criticism of Israel’s foreign influence as antisemitic. But it is not just antisemitic - it also contributes substantially to antisemitism. An antisemitic trope central to Nazism is that Jewish people control the media." #Trump #Netanyahu #Israel #media #antisemitism /3

"By acting as if the concerns of Israel are the same as the concerns of Jewish people, and restricting criticism of Israel on this basis, the news media strengthens societal belief in this pernicious antisemitic trope. … There is no moral case for hiding Israel’s foreign interference in US policy." #Trump #Netanyahu #Israel #media #antisemitism /4
